It's easy when you're Ken Block.

A complete one-off, and the world’s first performance all-wheel-drive 1965 Mustang notchback, Ken Block’s Hoonicorn comes packing a 410 cubic-inch (6.7-liter) Roush Yates V8 that sends 845 hp and 720 lb-ft of torque to all four wheels via a six-speed Sadev AWD transmission with a hydraulic handbrake system. It’s an incredible machine and Block is probably the only person that knows how to take it to the extremes without soiling himself.

If you have any doubt, just watch Gymkhana 7 again. Here, the world rally driver and sideways master shows Autocar how he drifts the Hoonicorn Mustang, using an empty Silverstone circuit as his playground.
